Knicks waive Sessions, expect to promote Burke, source says

The Knicks waived Ramon Sessions Saturday, opening up a roster spot to sign G-League guard Trey Burke.

The Burke signing will become official Sunday before the Knicks play the Pelicans at Madison Square Garden, according to a league source.

The Knicks signed Sessions to a one-year, veteran’s minimum deal over the summer, expecting that he would be their starting point guard.

But he and the Knicks got off to a slow start. The offense stalled during an 0-3 start for the Knicks.

Jarrett Jack replaced Sessions in the starting lineup in the fourth game, and hasn’t relinquished the spot.
